Club career

Sociedade was born in Ponta Delgada. Being able to operate as either a midfielder or a defender on the left flank, he spent most of his professional career with local C.D. Santa Clara, playing nearly 200 competitive matches with the Azores club and also being eventually awarded captaincy.[1] His only Primeira Liga experience arrived in the 2002–03 season, but he failed to appear in the league – only six presences as an unused substitute – as the side were also relegated after ranking in 16th position.[2]

In the summer of 2010, after just four second division games during the campaign, the 31-year-old Sociedade left Santa Clara and signed for Santiago Futebol Clube, an amateur team in the island of São Miguel, in his birth region.[2]
